Airsoft Canada - View Single Post - Getting back into airsoft, should I upgrade?

SWI7CH · June 4th, 2014, 14:02

Hey everyone,

I currently have a WELL R8 (G3 SAS) that I bought 7 years ago when I got into airsoft. I never had any issues with it except for the crappy battery that came with it. I used the AEG for multiple games over the course of 2 years and really liked it, shoots around 320 FPS.

Now fast forward 5 years, I am looking to get back into airsoft. Looking around at sites I am noticing that vests that fit G3 mag pouches are hard to come by, therefore making it difficult to put together a nice load out and play again.

So my question to you is, if you were in my feet right now, would you put some money into fixing up the old AEG (external and internal modifications) and tracking down tac gear that goes with it, or, would you sell it and try and upgrade to something newer plus easier to find good tac gear?

Sorry for the long post. I cannot wait to get back into this!
